    How You Can Help

     

       “Mankind owes to the child
          the best he has to give.”

                UN Declaration of the
Rights of the Child
  



 

 

           Many Opportunities Available to Help ...
                         One Child at a Time!

Host Families:  Healing the Children seeks families to provide a temporary home, love and support to  children who come to St. Louis for medical care from other countries without a parent.  Without these special families, HTC could not exist.

Sponsor Families:  When a child AND their parent are brought to St. Louis for medical care, special people are needed to “take them under their wing.”  This may include taking them to medical appointments, grocery shopping, or on an outing as well as offering emotional support.  

Airline Award Tickets: We are greatly in need of frequent flyer award tickets to help fly HTC children to St. Louis who do not qualify for donated tickets from various airline award programs.  This is a wonderful way to collaborate with us to make a direct impact on the life of a child!

Fundraising/Special Events:  The more funds HTC can raise, the more children we can help.  Right now, our largest fundraiser is our annual Golf Tournament, which requires a great deal of planning and many volunteers.  We are seeking active volunteers willing to serve on various fundraising committees to help support our programs. 

Share HTC’s Vision:  Spread the word about HTC by arranging a speaking engagement with your club, religious organization, company or school.   If your school/organization would like to support HTC through a meaningful fundraiser, please call us!

Donations:  Right now, you can change a child’s life forever by making a tax-deductible gift.  Click the “Just Give” button at the top of the page to donate by credit card or send a check to:  Healing the Children, P.O. Box 9227, St. Louis, MO 63117.
